Abstract: A zoning scheme (in points) of the Central Belarus area by the degree of comfortability of the geological environment for the people’s life was constructed. It was based on the analysis of maps and diagrams of modern geological processes, literature, field work materials and stationary observations. The following types of territories were identified: comfortable (less than 30 points), moderately comfortable (30–50 points), low comfort (50–70 points), uncomfortable (more than 70 points) and uncomfortable in active fault zones (more than 70 points). It was established that the degree of comfort correlates with the features of the earth’s surface relief, the probability and intensity of modern geological processes.
